That makes more sense. You should be able to use SQL to update the lat/lon geometry component, if you just isolate the lat/lon coords and project them. - V

I've done this in PG13, PG14, and PG15 with no difficulty. Except that one time when I didn't grant access to the sequence in the target table to the role as which the inserts were running. Then INSERTs silently failed. I only found the problem by connecting to pgAdmin as the insert script user, generating an appropriate INSERT statement, and getting a useful error message. - V

Can you query the rows in a DA SearchCursor and output the Geometry.WKT for each? Does that display the correct projected values? I have no idea how the layer could project on the fly to correct units if it didn't have correct SRID metadata. - V

If CAD objects are involved, Pro will render the CAD objects, not the geometry out of the database. It would be quite odd to get there, but that's the only reason that makes sense. - V

Loading incorrectly projected data would certainly cause this, even if it was then deleted. You should do a search for data in the range {-180,-90,+180,+90} to make sure improper data is not present, then you can reset the envelope of the dataset. - V

"Updates real time" is tricky in an interface that doesn't support parallel processing. This is less a Data Management issue than an ArcMap one. The ArcGIS Pro interface would let you do this easier (and that isn't a Data Management issue either). I'm not clear what you mean by "add a selection," but it seems like this isn't a real-time issue, per se, and you're really looking for a script tool that interacts with a UI (which is doable in either interface, and doesn't have a significant Data Management component). - V

Well, it should just work out of the box, but if you install/uninstall/reinstall Pro in different locations on a regular basis (like I do), sometimes the registry keys get out of whack. At that point you need to use RegEdit to repair the paths (there's three locations in two different keys where the current Pro install location needs update). I'm not going to walk you through something that has the potential to completely corrupt your host. If you're comfortable with RegEdit, you know why. And if you aren't, you probably shouldn't do so, and should turn it over to your IT admin staff. Good luck! - V

The security models of both AWS and PostgreSQL might be interfering here, as well as the operating system. The default is "no connectivity" so you need to explicitly grant communication from the IP address of the host where ArcGIS Server is running. If in doubt, try installing a PostgreSQL client like psql on the Server box, and try connecting from that. If psql can't connect, then the networking to PG is still not correct, and it's an AWS admin task. Note that PostGIS is the spatial extension to PostgreSQL (implementing geometry and geography types), so it's not PostGIS you connect to, but PostgreSQL itself (in this case, the PG RDS instance endpoint). The AWS admin needs to make a route from the ArcGIS Server EC2 host to the RDS endpoint. If the Server host is on-premise, you'll have a suboptimal solution (due to the high latency), but it still requires an explicit grant of access to the Server IP (you may have firewall issues from the Server node to the RDS as well). Good luck! - V

gdb_to_date is part of Archiving, not Versioning, per se. Enabling Archiving creates a bunch of indexes on the _H table. It's not generally necessary to create additional indexes (which could harm performance more than help it), and doing so outside of supported tools might result in issues upgrading your geodatabase. This seems to be an XY Problem question. Instead of asking about the solution you're working, it might be better to ask about the root problem, of archived table performance. It's quite possible that the table size and database server characteristics have a lot more to do with this query latency than an index on a column with low selectivity. (How many rows in the table are there, and how many of them have been deleted?) Note that this is probably more of a geodatabase (Data Management) question than an Enterprise one. - V

Memory workspaces have an intrinsic spatial index. You can't change how they operate. That's what that error indicates. Optimization by spatial index is not an infinite trick. There's always a diminishing returns inflection point, after which performance is harmed by a spatial index. There are lots of other optimization techniques available, but you'd need to provide more details about your task before any could be suggested. - V

It seems like you want "Archiving, But..." (similar to "Agile, But..."). I don't recommend hacking the Archiving tables in a versioned geodatabase. Instead, I suggest you add the timing you want in basic attributes, and use SQL constraints (temporal where clause) instead of Archiving to accomplish the same goal. There are two schools of temporal sequencing on a future "end date". One is to use a future epoch (e.g., "Dec 31, 9999"), which is how Archiving works. The other is to use NULL when the date is undefined. The latter is trickier in the WHERE clause (since it uses an OR), even if it does use less space (but proper use of COALESCE could ease that). - V

There isn't going to be one query, unless you UNION ALL together every An and Dn table of every user in the database instance, joining in the states and state_lineages table. It would be an exceedingly ugly query, probably involving at least two WITH clauses (because UPDATEs are a combination of both Add and Delete, they would have to be queried separately, then conjoined in an additional query. This would take me a day or two to work out, and I've been a SDBE/SDE/ArcSDE/geodatabase subject matter expert for thirty years. If you want to go down this path, you'll need to provide what you have so far. You'll need to compile a list of all the versioned tables, queries that generate lists of table_name, state, An/Dn row and impacted objectid and a query that can summarize INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE events by version-table. It might be easier to run all those queries from Python, and collate there, but it's still an ambitious task. - V

Which Pro? 3.2 introduced support for 64-bit integers. Up until then wide integers (except "NUMBER(38)") mapped to 64-bit float. [3.2.0 had issues with arcpy.ArcSDESQLExecute processing of 64-bit ints as 16-bit (massive overflow/underflow), but that was fixed by 3.2.1.] The root of this issue is the lack of standard numeric types (short/int/long/real/float) in Oracle (everything is a "NUMBER"), forcing Esri to have to decide what type to map each NUMBER flavor to... Is NUMBER(10) a long integer, or a float (over 2.14e+10 INT_MAX)? If Oracle implemented an "int" type, the "cast(rownum as int)" would work, but instead it maps it to a NUMBER which has resolution that overflows 32-bit storage (and isn't "NUMBER(38)"), so it falls back to double precision. I wonder if NUMBER(10) won't map to 64-bit integer once you get to Pro 3.3.x... - V PS: And be careful with casting rownum to a registered rowid column, because changing the ORDER BY would change the order (and so can the optimizer, at its whim). Since the point of a registered rowid column is to link queries to a specific row, with a WHERE clause, then the rownum values could differ on subsequent query.

Part of the issue here is probably that ArcGIS uses a sophisticated model to store coordinates, in effect, snapping the vertices to a very fine sub-millimeter grid. The exact details are covered in the Understanding Coordinate Management in the Geodatabase whitepaper, but the gist of it is that a SpatialReference object is a lot more than the coordinate system -- It includes the exact parameters for the vertex grid (and it's variable, and the default values have evolved over time, so depending on when and how the dataset was created and referenced, it could be different from site to site). It's probably not as useful to ask in Esri Community why the non-Esri app is behaving that way that it is -- GIS Stack Exchange might be a better forum, but in order to ask a more specific Question, you should probably review the whitepaper, so you know which details to add. - V

Okay, first off, please format your SQL as multi-line, so it's legible. Second, the database is optional, so there's no need for "sde." in front of every reference. Then you need to learn to use JOIN (multiple tables in FROM left standard practice after ANSI SQL 92, and are now worst practice) and to make use of both table and column aliases: SELECT wo.DateReceived, wo.Location_Area, wo.Address, wo.Facilty_Zone, wo.Requesting_Department, wo.ProblemDescription, wo.RequestedCompletionDate, wo.Status, wo.Type, wo.TeamLeader, wo.WorkNumID, wo.WorkComplete, wo.Comments AS wo_comments, wo.PreExMaterial, wo.PurchasedMaterial, wo.CouncilDistrict, wo.CallerNumber, wo.CallerEmail, wo.SHAPE, wo.TeamAssigned, wo.AssignedAssetType, wo.WorkCompletedSummary, wo.CallerName, wo.Emailed, wo.EmailedDate, wo.PurchasedMaterialsDescription, wo.Ownership, wo.EMFEMA, wo.WorkStart, wo.WorkDiff, wo.SandbagVolume, wo.AssetCondition, wo.AssetNotes, wo.GlobalID, eq.Subtype, eq.Equipment, eq.TotalHours, eq.comments AS eq_comments, eq.WorkOrderObjID FROM WORKORDER wo JOIN Equipment eq ON eq.joinkey = wo.joinkey It's not obvious what the JOIN column should be, but I expect you can work that out. - V
